I have been a tenant at this apartment since july 2007. I have seen & dealt with Laurie, Angie and now Malik. From someone else's previous comment I agree about how Laurie was. I think she was just not a people person & management material.. Angie I have to leave that alone cause she was just not honest.. Malik on the other hand is a very laid-back guy who treats his residents with respect, same as Tameka. I havent seen him acting weird or not caring about his residents. I am in customer service and am managing an office myself. Let me tell you this, it is NOT easy to deal with more than 200 or 300 residents with different problems everyday.. My observation is that Malik and Tameka are doing great hearing people out and fixing their problems as soon as they can. I never seen them in a bad mood. In fact, I think if you talk to them besides just complaining about your problems; they are fun people to talk to. I am sure they want to help everybody but if you listen to them, there are some things they can do and some they cant. Remember they do not own the building, they manage it and they have their own managers to report to.
About the apartment itself, yes it isnt the best apartment around but for what you pay, you definitely get ALOT! It is clean inside & outside, clean inside the apartments, it has its market downstairs (i know they arent ALDI or a doolar store but it CONVENIENT), it is clean in the laundry room with enough machines & dryers, it has the cheapest parking available around the neighbourhood, and I havent seen the elevators break down once or twice.. Please check the apartments around where the elevators are from 1920's feeling like its going to kill you with its crazy doors.. It is a block from the lake, bus stops, 6 blocks to red line..
Whatever people say, for its price, you cant find a better deal than this apartment. Engineer and the crew also are nice guys trying to help when u need it.. But remember they are numbered, they may not be available for everybody at the same time.. Overall, management have good intentions and they are good people.. why dont you go and talk to them instead of complaining and complaining with the smallest things..

What you say is true --the new(soon to be X Resident)Manager is nice and The building sits in a good location. But a fish stinks form the head and they are a DEVELOPMENT company who now wants OUT OF THIS BUILDING. The parking lot needs to be torn down and the building needs MILLIONS in improvements. The older tennants are SCARED to death of the new residents that were place here from "other" neighborhoods & HUD buildings waiting list. approximately 2/3rds of the building is occupid by HUD tennants. Crime is up and the quality of the renters is down. No offense but I have been here for almost 2 decades years and a one year resident really doesnt know much! I am happy you are happy--But you are the exception to the rule.
